Neuschwanstein Castle

A great day today at Neuschwanstein castle. Got up nice and early and jumped on the train. After a 2 hour journey we arrived in Füssen which is 5km from the castle. We then caught the bus to the entrance. The line for tickets was huge so after an hour wait we finally had our tickets and began the 40 min uphill climb to the castle…we weren’t disappointed. It is pretty stunning from the outside.

Once we reached the top we then did a tour of the inside. It was never completed inside and the tour was very average. The ‘English’ tour guide spoke zike zis zo zit zwas zery zard zo zunderstand. After the tour we walked around to a bridge over the canyon which gives the great views of the castle.

Only two nights to go! Will spend the next couple of days looking around Munich and hopefully visiting the site of the first concentration camp.
